The best Valentine's Day present ever!!!

This is probably one of the funniest things that I have ever lived through... And every time I look at the pictures I lose it all over again...

At our school, the faculty are assigned a month to bring a snack for that months faculty meeting. I have been given February every year... yeah the single teacher gets the love month... I don't mind, and usually get teased for months about how elaborate my "meal" is... I love to cook, and since cooking for one is boring don't do it all the time... Hey it shows them how much I love them... I even use the opportunity to buy my yearly roses... I buy myself a dozen of white roses since, well, my husband won't buy me any... ok so here is the rest of the story...

I have an invisible husband... His name is Frank. Frank was charming when I met him, but we've been married now for 4 years and well let's just say it's not paradise... He won't go to church with me (which is how this story got started... I didn't have a husband to put his arm around me on Covenant Marriage Sunday, LOL) he doesn't do any chores and my house is always a disaster because of him... getting the picture... LOL He is a wonderful scapegoat from bruises to being late... He gets blamed for a lot of things... But no one has ever seen him...

A couple of my co-teachers thought it would be funny if Frank came to school... So as I finished setting up the snack, and the plates with some help from my wonderful parents... I couldn't figure out where a couple of the guy teachers were, so my principal decided to start with out them...

Well after we prayed to start the meeting... Low and behold what walked in the door...

It was Little River Singing Valentines... (Little River is a notorious group of pranksters and all around funny group...) "Frank" had supposedly hired them to sing "You Are My Sunshine" for me... He also brought me a rose and a card... And came dress like a knight... With a sign that said "Cupid keeps missing"!!!

Needless to say I was laughing my head off till they wheeled him over next to me and the "dummy" acted like he was going to give me a hug... The joke was great!!! And the card is still on my desk to remind me of when Frank came to school...
